Quark 125b thermaling

[smhertzog]

I went a little different route and used aluminum angle and heat heat shrink instead of the poorly designed case. Temps on the aluminum never got over 105 f ,this is with a 9.25lb crt geared 16\46 with a neu motor and 87 f outside. The motor got up to 179 f. It then blew a cap so I guess I'll have to try the add a cap thing and see how it holds up.
Two things I noticed about the Quark:
1. It seems to run the motor timing very advanced and tends to make the motor hot. There should be an adjustment like on the MM. It makes the car noticeably faster but the added heat isn't worth the trade off.
2. It also cogged a little off the line, about the same as my MM with a 2 pole 8xl. I've heard people say their Quark neu combo doesn't cog at all so maybe I got a bad one from the factory?
